THE LADY BIRDS - "Why Must I Be Lonely" (1965)

 
The Lady Birds were from Fullerton, California, and only had a couple of singles.
This was the B side, and the A side was a cover of The Drifter's "Sweets For My Sweet." 
 
 
One cool thing, they asked Ladybird Johnson for permission to use the band name. 
 
Do not confuse The Lady Birds with this 60's Brit duo and trio,
The Ladybirds.
These birds sang the background vocals on Marc Bolan's first release "The Wizard," were the Mood Mosaic voices, and also sang background vocals on songs by John Entwistle, and many others.
 
And whatever else you do, don't confuse The Lady Birds with The Ladybirds who claim to be "the world's first all-girl topless rock band."
